Rumors of War - Kings of the East

Analysts: Japan wants military tension with South Korea to expand military power - UPI.com
UPI reports:  "Japan wants to escalate military tension with South Korea to create an excuse to revise its anti-war constitution to strengthen its military power, analysts said. Diplomatic tensions between two neighboring countries have heightened in a series of incidents involving Japanese patrol planes and South Korean warships since last month. [...] Abe and right-wing groups have been in pursuit of strengthening Japan's military power and the U.S.-Japan alliance against the emergence of China and North Korean threats, according to Hankyoreh."

Comment: I think this report is purely sensational and is way off base in suggesting actual military tension between Japan and South Korea. I'll grant that there may be political grandstanding going on, attempts to score points with a domestic audience, but I've seen nothing that would make me think that those two countries are on the brink of war. This is truly a "rumor" of war and nothing more than a rumor.
